Get Tight Lounge: had a pit beef and the turkey sandwich as takeout and it was … awful. I am not very picky but these were virtually inedible. Maybe better on site? But won’t be back. But their house made jerky was great. Expensive but great.
Scott’s Shawarma: Super solid takeout. Prices were good for the quality and portions.
El Pope: Not sure how it took me so long to get there but the food was awesome. Pupusas and shared a steak torta. Service was slow and bad but I wasn’t in a hurry. Tried a cocktail and it was lousy but they were out of most beer. Still, dirt cheap at like $30-ish for two people and we had leftovers.
Acacia Midtown: I moved here right when they closed so I can’t compare to the old locations. Food was really good (shrimp appetizer, fish tacos and crab cake) but the service was … weak. I know they are working out the kinks before full opening though.
Coopers Hawk Winery: I think this is a chain but I hadn’t been and went before a comedy show. The food was expensive but honestly fantastic. I had the tuna from their light calorie menu and it was awesome. I didn’t like the wine I tried from their in house barrel.
Hangry Joe’s: Chicken Sammy was yummy. Belly was happy. (I don’t like things too hot or spicy)
Mr. Submarine: First time there. Slow drive through but you can shovel those subs into my face hole any day of the week and I will be happy! Very tasty and good prices. Also, surprisingly good chicken tenders which were an impulse buy,
